Ted Yu commented on HBASE-7128: ------------------------------- In HConstants: {code} + /** When we encode strings, we always specify UTF8 encoding */ + public static final Charset UTF8_CHARSET = Bytes.UTF8_CHARSET; {code} HConstants and Bytes classes are both in hbase-common Can UTF8_CHARSET be removed from HConstants ? Patch looks good. > Reduced annoying catch clauses of UnsupportedEncodingException that is never > thrown because of UTF-8 > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-7128 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7128 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Hiroshi Ikeda > Priority: Trivial > Fix For: 0.96.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-7128.patch > > > There are some codes that catch UnsupportedEncodingException, and log or > ignore it because Java always supports UTF-8 (see the javadoc of Charset). > The catch clauses are annoying, and they should be replaced by methods of > Bytes. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
